The Wide Area Search Plugin (WASP) is an ATAK plugin that helps coordinate and execute wide area search operations after a disaster, such as a hurricane or tornado. Teams conducting search and rescue operations can use WASP to view and share data with commanders and other responders, for efficient coordination and response planning.

WASP provides standardized markers for structures, victims, vehicles, hazards, and more, making it easy to share actionable data. Markers can be annotated and tracked throughout the response effort.

Structures can be tracked across recon, primary, and secondary search phases, using graphics based on the FEMA Search Assessment Marking. Structures of different damage levels can be marked and shared with two taps, while additional details like number of floors, construction material, and best entry location can be entered as needed.

For victim markers, triage information can be entered, and locations can be updated as victims take shelter or are evacuated elsewhere.

All WASP markers can be annotated with requests for specialized teams or required equipment to extract victims or provide medical aid, as well as photos and other pertinent details.
